EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "West Point, and Scenes in Vicinity, 1874" takes us on a journey back to the picturesque landscapes of New York State in the late 19th century. Created by renowned artist Harry Fenn as part of his work for "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live In" this print showcases the beauty of West Point and its surrounding areas. The River Hudson comes alive with activity as sailing boats gracefully glide across its waters alongside paddle steamers. These vessels serve as a reminder of the importance of water transport during that era. Alongside these scenes are stunning views of various locations around West Point: Cozens Landing, Ragged Point Cut, Geese Point Light, Kosciuszkos Garden, The Landing, and Roy Hook Tunnel. Of particular interest is Kosciuszkos Garden, built by Tadeusz Kosciuszko in 1778. This historical garden adds depth to the landscape captured in this print and serves as a testament to the rich history found within West Point. Harry Fenn's meticulous attention to detail is evident throughout this engraving. His ability to capture both natural beauty and man-made structures highlights his skill as an artist. Through this print, we are transported back in time to experience the charm and tranquility that once graced these New York landscapes. "West Point, and Scenes in Vicinity" not only serves as a visual delight but also offers us a glimpse into America's past—a reminder of our country's diverse geography and cultural heritage preserved through artistry like Fenn's remarkable pen-and-pencil delineation.
